It is what it is for that money & mileage. Externally the paintwork is ok, been knocked about a bit. Interior is tatty, drivers seat is well worn and some trim is held on with tank tape......
Drivers side door check strap is broken & the rear wash wipe doesn't work.

The engine is as strong as an ox, doesn't use any oil/water. The gearbox is smooth. No nasty clonks or rattles when driving.

Round town we used to get late 40's, on a run i used to see 60 + mpg.

We owned it for just over a year and loved it, only reason we sold was cause the wife wanted a Puma again or we would have kept it for a long time.

I think we did about 6000 miles in it, ranging from commute to work which was 8 miles each way and trips away totalling 500 miles in a weekend....

Wow didn't know they came with a V6 engine (worth the asking price on its own lol) and with 242k, a steal at £600............

Always one.....

Well it bugs me when dealers write complete nonsense in car adverts.

Paul240480 · Jan 6th, 2015, 18:13

Even with the dealer not knowing his backside from his elbow, it'd be a good 600 quids worth, I'm sure

martin_r_smith · Jan 6th, 2015, 18:54

For an outdated diesel engine with 240k miles on it??

Are you the dealer??

Paul240480 · Jan 6th, 2015, 19:01

Lol, no. Outdated but good.... They'll do 500,000 without much needed. They have a good following and are sought after. Just my opinion, of course.

They still fetch strong money on ebay for ones that have been to moon and back,

Its not bad money for what it is really
